Kris McNeil started Solace Power in 2007 as an engineering research and development company based out of Memorial University's technology incubator, the Genesis Centre. His singular vision was to cut the cords and find a way to deliver wireless power to products that typically use cords and cables for electronic charging. Ten years later, Solace's Resonant Capacitive Coupling technology, or RC2, has reached commercialization and is being used by enterprises in multiple industries around the world. Solace recently signed a multi-year licensing agreement with Byrne, a leading power and data solutions company located in Rockford, Michigan to integrate Solace's RC2 technology into their mobile power solutions for commercial office, education and healthcare furniture. And this is just the beginning. Kris McNeil will discuss the evolution of the company and share his insights on building the new power system and raising millions of dollars in public and private investment along the way.
